Blockchain Driven Supply Chains and Enterprise Information Systems
examines initiatives for blockchain implementation in supply chain
management and the integration of blockchain technology with
existing enterprise management applications. The authors aim to
establish common ground to provide solutions and best practices in
the supply chain field, while tackling the challenges faced when
integrating blockchain in supply chain policy. Chapters address
both design and implementation aspects of supply chain platforms
and enterprise information systems, and provide real-world use
cases and examples from industry that address the impacts of using
blockchain in the modern supply chain.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of
the 9th International Conference on Mobile Networks and Management,
MONAMI 2017, held in Melbourne, Australia, in December 2017. The 30
revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 43
submissions. The papers handle topics in the area of mobile
computing, wireless networking and management.
Honey A vital understanding of the health effects of this renowned
natural food Honey is among the most famous and widely available
natural food products in the world, and its flavor profiles are
well understood. Despite its use as a natural remedy by many
societies, however, there has until recently been no systematic
attempt to assess the scientific basis for claims about honey’s
health benefits. The ubiquity of honey and honey-derived natural
remedies make such an assessment highly desirable. Honey:
Composition and Health Benefits offers a systematic assessment for
the first time, analyzing the substances that make up honey and
their health effects, both separately and in combination.
Dedicating full chapters to each of honey’s constituent
materials, this book provides the first full-length and
comprehensive treatment of this natural food. It also includes
content on other honey products such as royal jelly, propolis, and
bee venom. It promises to shed scientific light on centuries of
tradition. Honey readers will also find: Detailed treatment of
honey’s constituent carbohydrates, amino acids, organic acids,
and more Closing chapters dealing with contaminants and toxins
found in honey A vast and distinguished team of global contributors
with decades of expertise Honey promises to be essential for food
scientists, nutritionists, and health scientists, both in academic
research and in industry.
In this book, the control of a flexible robot with a payload at the
free end is theoretically and experimentally investigated, where
the arm dynamic model is obtained by applying Euler-Bernoulli beam
and Lagrange's equations. The current research is mainly carried
out to highlight the major problems encountered in positioning the
flexible robot arm upon applying different control policies. The
arm is driven by a DC-servomotor, where the hub position is
measured by a rotary encoder and the deflection is detected by a
strain gauge sensor. This book is mainly carried out to determine
the major problems encountered in controlling flexible arm upon
applying conventional controllers and to highlight the capabilities
of the intelligent controllers in improving the arm dynamic
response. This book was written for researchers in mechanical,
electrical and Mechatronics engineering. However, it is also
intended to be a practical textbook for those engineers in industry
who find themselves involved in a project dealing with robot design
and would like to have more-or-less self-taught refresher course.
Long term evolution (LTE) is an important new 4G wireless broadband
technology that provides significantly increased peak data rates,
reduced latency, scalable bandwidth capacity, and backwards
compatibility with existing GSM and UMTS technologies. For these
reasons, LTE is now being utilized by most major service providers.
This book will help to form the basics of LTE and can be a helpful
guideline for all the aspirants of LTE.
Biotechnology plays a major role in driving agricultural
sustainability as a key component of modern and integrated
agricultural practices. This is evident in the development and use
of genetically modified (GM) and / or transgenic crop varieties
with desirable nutritional and agronomic characteristics, and those
that withstand both biotic and abiotic stresses. Thus, the use of
GM crops may enhance agricultural productivity. In the same vein,
the energy sector is faced with lots of challenges due to the use
of fossil fuels which have been suggested to cause environmental
pollution. Therefore sustainable alternatives are required; one of
these is biofuel produced from food materials which has a great
promise. However, the biofuel production has its own constraints
which include the development of efficient systems and
technologies; and also high cost of production which make the fuel
not readily available. Perhaps, there is need for new effective
processing technologies that are more cost effective leading to a
cheaper finished product. Several research efforts using
cutting-edge technologies are directed towards developing a viable
biofuel, leading to energy sustainability.
